Chapter 356 Lin Dahai


Chapter 356 Lin Dahai

Coming out of Zhang Ping's house carrying an iron cage, Zhang An had not yet decided how to deal with this rat spirit.

Although this thing is a street rat that everyone shouts about beating, it is not easy to grow to such a big size.

After all, it is not easy for this thing to grow to such a big size. It feels a pity to kill Zhang An all at once.

After thinking for a while, Zhang An still didn’t make a move on this guy.

From the time when he was surrounded by several big dogs, you can see how smart he is and how smart he is.

So Zhang An threw it into space and locked it up, and took some time to see if he could tame it.

If it can be tamed, there may be a place where this guy can be used in the future.

If it can't be tamed, then Zhang An can only say sorry. He can't blame others for not cherishing the opportunity he gave it.

Anyway, as long as we don't let it out and harm everyone's food and poultry.

In the afternoon, neither Li Hongbin nor Zhang An was guarding the masters.

Anyway, it’s just a fish pond, and they are very skilled at it.

And one of the masters was the one who came to dig fish ponds for Zhang An’s family.

He dug the half-acre fish pond in the backyard. Zhang An has always been very satisfied with the half-acre fish pond at home.

He had known for a long time that the relationship between the young man and his boss was unusual, so he worked very carefully.

And the meals served by Zhang An's family were not only sumptuous, but also very delicious.

For no other reason than for others to entertain me so sincerely, I must do a better job.

So while the master was working, he also reminded the two colleagues next to him.

After all, this was a job they did together, and if anyone was holding him back, he couldn't explain it.

Let me make it clear in advance that everyone should be careful when working, so as not to ruin a pot of soup with a mouse dropping.

At lunch time, Su Ying, who had been resting for a long time, began to doze off again.

Although several excavators in the backyard are still working non-stop, the sound is very noisy.

But the doors and windows of Zhang An's house are all made of artificial solid wood, and the sound insulation effect is better than those made of ordinary alloy.

As long as the doors and windows are closed, the bedroom will become quiet.

When Su Ying fell asleep, Zhang An remembered the wine steamer he had asked Carpenter Lin to help him make a few days ago.

The two steamers, Carpenter Lin said it would only take two days to make, but now it has been more than two days, so they must have been finished.

Taking advantage of this moment to remember, Zhang An went to get the steamer back without any delay.

"Hey, uncle is here too. Why did the carpenter uncle suddenly bring in so much wood?"

When Zhang An came to Lin Carpenter's house, he saw a tractor parked at their house. The entrance of the courtyard.

The car is loaded with square planks of catalpa wood. At this moment, the old uncle is leading the villagers to help unload the planks.

"The village needs to build several yards, so the village chief came to me to make doors and windows. These are all boards from the village. I don't have the money to buy so many squares."

Carpenter Lin said with a smile, There was a happy look on his face.

It turned out to be wood from the village, Zhang An just said, so many catalpa wood cubes are not cheap.

If it was from the village, then the explanation would be clear. After all, there is so much wood in the collective forest farm, but it is all high-quality wood.

You only need to cut it down, dry it in the shade, and drag it to the sawmill to be converted into boards. It only costs a little sawing fee and does not cost much.

Furthermore, the village has cut down some wood and put it away in previous years. This year we didn’t see the team that went up the mountain to cut down the trees. It must have been the pile placed in the lobby of the village committee.

"Uncle has a great vision. The carpenter's craftsmanship is not just for boasting. The things he makes are so beautiful."

Zhang An was not idle, and also joined in the process of cutting the boards. Team.

There are several people in the village who can be carpenters, but he is the one with the best craftsmanship.

Even in the eight villages nearby, if he said he was second, absolutely no one would dare to say he was first.

The doors and windows made by others are the kind used by ordinary people. They have no tricks and are straight forward.

Carpenter Lin is different, this man really has something in his hands.

The doors and windows he made for Zhang An and Li Hongbin's home look similar to those of wealthy families on TV, and they look antique.

So when he decided to make doors and windows, Zhang Jianwen decided to leave these doors and windows to him.

Although there is only one carpenter Lin, it takes a long time to make so many wooden doors and windows.

But Zhang Jianwen doesn’t care, as long as it looks good, is strong, and is attractive, then it’s totally worth it.

So Carpenter Lin is very happy this time. If all the doors and windows in the yard are completed, he will not have to take on the work for half a year.

"Haha, Old Man Lin is right, your apprentice is quite good at speaking for the master."

It is not a secret in the village that Zhang An learned carpentry from Carpenter Lin. .

However, many people have different opinions after knowing it.

Some people think that Zhang An is a piece of material and very talented, so Old Man Lin accepted him.

Some people think that Carpenter Lin is old and needs someone to pass on his skills. Zhang An happens to be rich, so Carpenter Lin takes a fancy to him.

Because there have been many people who wanted to follow Carpenter Lin as their teacher over the years, but Old Man Lin felt that they could not endure the hardship, so he confiscated all of them.

"What I said, uncle, is wrong. Craftsmanship is something that can be seen and touched."

"Of course, a house as big as yours is. A living sign, your uncle and I are just old, not blind yet.”

Since Zhang An’s house was built, many people from other villages have been asking about their house when they see doors and windows like that. Who did it.

In the past two years, Carpenter Lin has taken on a lot of work from other villages.

So Zhang An’s house was a loud advertisement for Carpenter Lin.

A tractor had a lot of planks, but there were many people unloading the goods, so it was quickly moved to the side room of Carpenter Lin's house.

"Okay, Old Man Lin, you will do it first. When the wood is not enough, let me know and I will bring it to you."

There are many doors and windows made in the village. After all, there are so many houses, and this little wood is definitely not enough.

But Carpenter Lin really couldn’t put so many boards here, so he pulled a cart over.

If there is too much pile, it may cause the boards to become damp and moldy, which will be a bad thing.

After all, it is spring now, and there will be more rain soon, and the tide will return at every turn.

So the other boards are still piled in the large tiled house of the village committee.

It’s not far apart anyway, so I’ll pick it up when I’m done with it.

After Zhang Jianwen finished speaking, he took the people back.

The site for digging the foundation has been vacated. Although there will be no construction tomorrow, they have a lot to do in these two days.

Purchasing building materials, counting arrivals, moving and placing them, etc., all require their hands.

"Uncle Carpenter, is the steamer ready? I'll come over to get the steamer."

After Zhang Jianwen and the others left, Zhang An talked to Carpenter Lin.

"It's done. You still have some materials left, so I made a big wooden basin for you."

Carpenter Lin brought Zhang An into the house, and there were two of them in the main room. There was a large wooden steamer that was as tall as half a person, and there was also a large wooden basin.

This wooden basin is just what Zhang An wants. He is also thinking of buying a few large basins to soak rice in the space. As a result, Carpenter Lin made him such a big one, so he didn't have to buy it on the street.

Overjoyed, Zhang An was ready to pay Carpenter Lin. Although the relationship between the two could be regarded as master and apprentice, it still took two days of work.

"Take it back yourself, don't ask me to scold you."

Watching Zhang An handing him the money, Lin Carpenter didn't even look at it and spat at him.

"That's it, when the wine comes out later, I will pour you two more pounds."

Zhang An kept the money when he saw this, because Lin Carpenter's temperament was like this.

If he wants to collect money, regardless of whether you give it to him or not, he will tell you how much he wants to give you.

If he doesn’t charge money, then you won’t take it no matter what you give him.

"That's okay, but do it quietly so your aunt doesn't see it."

As soon as Lin Carpenter heard this, he immediately laughed and whispered to Zhang An.

Zhang An shook his head, yes, this is another man who cannot climb over the mountain.

"Da Dahai, you and Xiao An take the steamer back."

If there are two steamers, Zhang An can handle them one by one.

But now there was a big wooden basin, so Carpenter Lin called Lin Dahai outside for help.

Lin Dahai is the son of Lin Carpenter, a man in his thirties who is only a few years younger than Zhang Jianguo.

Usually, the children are left at home to be taken care of by the elders, while both husband and wife work outside.

Zhang An carried two wooden steamers, and Lin Dahai carried a large wooden basin. The two of them went to Zhang An's old house.

Because Zhang An only planned to take one steamer home, and Zhang An planned to put the remaining wooden steamer and large wooden basin in the space.

"Brother Dahai, are you still going out this year?"

People who work outside in the village basically go out on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

Because I am outside all year round, I want to spend more time with my children during the Chinese New Year.

And it has not yet entered the big trend of working in the country. There is no such thing as Spring Festival travel. There is no need to worry about not being able to buy tickets.

"I won't go for now. My father said that the job he took on this time is not small, so he asked me to stay at home and help finish it first."

The job Lin Dahai was talking about was in the village. Hiring a Lin carpenter to do doors and windows would be a lot of work for seven or eight yards combined.

As the son of a forest carpenter, he must have some carpentry skills.

And Lin Dahai went out to work, also doing carpentry for his boss in a furniture factory.

"It's good to be like this. It's good to be able to take more care of the children. It's not a problem to go out to work all the time."

There are many people like this in rural areas. They go out to work all their lives and leave their children to the elderly since they were young.

But how can the elderly at home control their children, so many children become rebellious and grow crooked.

Especially in these years, many children don’t want to read, so they just want to join the society.

"Yes, but what can we do if we don't go out to work? There are so many debts at home that we can't pay off."

Lin Dahai has three children. In this era, it is enough to keep a house. Know how much money you borrowed.

In the past few years, the couple has been working outside, which makes them feel more relaxed.

"Brother Dahai, have you ever thought about finding something to do in the village? After all, it is impossible to work for a lifetime."

Zhang An has experienced it in later generations, and naturally he knows it very well. .

“What can you do in the village? After working in the fields for a whole year, you may not be able to make any money.”

Lin Dahai thought Zhang An was talking about farming at home, so he shook his head and said.

Farming crops in the first two seasons of the year in rural areas requires a maximum of more than 1,000 yuan. After deducting fertilizer and grain payments, how much money is left?

He has been working outside for the past two years. Although he is tired, he can earn a salary of two to three hundred per month.

The couple saves a little and has simpler food and clothing. It is not a problem to get three or four thousand likes a year.

If you come back to farm, you may not be able to get so much if you bury your head and work for a few years.

"Brother Dahai, you are thinking wrong. Although we only have land, we can't just grow some crops."

Why rural people have always been rural people? It's all because Only crops can be grown in the fields.

To put it bluntly, if we really rely on those crops, we will starve to death sooner or later.

"Oh? The land can only grow some crops, what else can we do here?"

Lin Dahai did not treat Zhang An as an ordinary young man. After all, these two He had heard from the old man everything about Zhang An.

"As long as you have the courage, you can engage in planting or breeding. There were already people in our village who started working last year. They are no worse than you working outside, and they can also take care of the family."

Last year, Zhang An's two uncles had a family. There is Zhang Laosan in the village who has made a lot of money from the kiwi fruits on the few acres of land.

And this is because it is the first year, and the fruit-bearing rate on the trees is not high. It will be doubled this year.

If it were more than ten years later, Zhang An would not be so sure.

But now, the country is developing rapidly and all materials are in short supply.

If you are engaged in breeding or planting now, as long as you have the courage and are not afraid of failure, you will definitely achieve results.

"Haha, brother Dahai, you will still be at home during this period of time. You can learn more about these things from the carpenter uncle. Our village is really not bad now."

Seeing Lin Dahai With a hesitant expression on his face, Zhang An smiled and said.

He has never been a talkative person. If it were anyone else, he would not talk so much.

The reason why I told Lin Dahai so much was entirely because of Lin Carpenter. It didn’t mean that Lin Dahai should decide anything immediately.

Because he didn't want to watch Lin Carpenter and his two old men, doing this and that all day long, and having to take care of several disobedient grandchildren.

And the old man has a very stubborn temper. No matter how good the relationship is, he will not ask for help easily.

There was no young man at home, so if there was any heavy work at home, the old man would just bury his head and do it without saying a word to him.

Many people in the village said that Carpenter Lin taught Zhang An how to do carpentry because he saw that Zhang An had money.

But in fact, Carpenter Lin never said anything to Zhang An. On the contrary, if Zhang An had anything to do here, the old man would come over without invitation.

"Okay Anzi, I'll go back first."

The two of them arrived at Zhang An's old house, placed the wooden basin, and Lin Dahai was ready to go back.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Brother Dahai."

Lin Dahai waved his hand and turned around and went back without saying anything.

Before leaving, Zhang An was very moved when he saw what Lin Dahai said to him, but he had not yet made up his mind.

Anyway, Zhang An has always been good to his own people. If Lin Dahai really has any ideas, for Lin Carpenter's sake, he will definitely be willing to give him a hand.

But the final choice depends on Lin Dahai himself.

After all, he is not a nanny. He has to feed you a meal himself.

I wish everyone a happy National Day
